Diagram: Role assignment controls access, creation, modification, and deletion behavior for C4 Diagram Sets.
Recommended permission strategy
- Grant Access to architecture consumers.
- Grant Create and Modify to architecture maintainers.
- Grant Delete or Hard Delete only to super users with governance responsibility.
Create rights required for creation workflows
The following C4 workflows require Create permission:
- Import diagrams into a C4 Diagram Set
- Generate diagrams from Integration Landscape
- Create diagrams from BizTalk (using Add New Set from BizTalk)
If users can view a set but cannot perform these actions, review the role assignment and set Create to Allow.
